No. I would be too afraid to do anything fearing the end results.
We all know that we are going to die, but to know when and how is too much for the mind to handle.
Now people with an incurable diseases or something may know that their death is soon, but to know the exact time and place, too much for me.

Some people do get to know it, the terminally ill. The knowledge definitely gives an edgy intense meaning to life that others don't have. Everything one does takes on a keenly felt importance. No moment is wasted on trivialities, petty defenses, or denials, thinking you've got plenty of time. I like that. Yes, I would want to know.
It is the awareness that death always rides on our left shoulder that compels us to live a life of integrity.

No , may be it is so soon so I'll get depressed and stop my life and I won't do sth important for me or for others that I was a bout to do. May be it is so far away so that I'll go careless on my life thinking that I have plenty of time to set things right then I will ruin my life and destroy it . Knowing the future is not good in any way

No, it might make me give up something I enjoy. It may also give me undue stress and worry, causing a non-scheduled heart attack.
On the other hand, if I did know, I could take a colon cleanse and fast for a few days-that way, I wouldn't leave a smelly corpse.
Hmmm.....nope, I still don't want to know, really.

Yes, I would want to know. If I knew I was going to die in 10 years, I wouldn't need to save for retirement, and I could enjoy that money now.

It's okay, I know when I'm going to die, when we're all going to die in fact. 19/01/2028 the world will cease to end, it says so in the Bible...oh wait a minute I think Dave from the pub told me that.

No. Only God knows the future.
But as an alternative:
Make your long term plans as if you will live for ever.
Live your life as if you will die tomorrow!

No. Because Jesus tells us not to worry about things in this life,If i knew then that would be all i would think about. Instead i would focus on if i am ready to die.

No, because I'd obsess about it. It's best just to live every day in the fullest and save worrying about death for when you're knocking on its door.

Nope...too creepy; having a "countdown" to your death.....I prefer to leave it in God's Hands. I know where I'm going when I die; THAT'S FAR more important!!!
